"Presumably Deputy Secretary Xia has his own reasons in his heart." Chen Dalong's heart was like a mirror, and he replied casually.

Secretary Hong knew in his heart that the relationship between Chen Dalong and Xia Banghao had always been uncoordinated, so he didn't say much, but said in a worried tone:

"Mayor Chen, it is very likely that the whistleblower sent a report letter to you in a group, if the letter has also reached the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection now, I am afraid that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection should also have some movement, after all, you are now a member of the Standing Committee and the deputy mayor during the publicity period."

"I understand, I will call Deputy Secretary Zhu when I have time to ask about the situation."

After putting down the phone, Chen Dalong had to reconsider the current situation in his heart, but he didn't expect that Xia Banghao would also actively participate in this matter?

He was originally worried in his heart, recently, Xia Banghao is very honest, his son-in-law has been locked up, which can be regarded as a lesson for him, presumably he will not dare to go against himself easily in the future, but he didn't expect that his own thoughts have not changed many of Xia Banghao's thoughts.

"Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, this is what you Xia Banghao asked for." Chen Dalong swore fiercely in his heart, "Lao Tzu doesn't make trouble, but Lao Tzu is not afraid of things, since your Deputy Secretary Xia is bent on putting me in an unbearable situation, then let's ride a donkey and read the record book and see!" ”

When Chen Dalong and Secretary Hong were on the phone, Xia Banghao was in an elegantly designed tea room on the third floor of a large hotel.

Feng Jiuyang was determined to let Chen Dalong not turn over this time, he knew in his heart that his current shortcoming was the officialdom connections, when he knew that Xia Haobang, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, had a hobby of tasting tea, he specially asked the deputy mayor Diao Yipin to put the meeting and conversation place of Xia Banghao here, which can be regarded as a bit of a thought.

To put it bluntly, he wants to coax Xia Haobang to be happy, and at the same time use the power in Xia Banghao's hands to bring down his sworn enemy Chen Dalong with Diao Yipin, he will take the opportunity to officially enter Xia Banghao's circle and lay a good foundation for his future business.

I heard that the city has recently planned to build an ecological new city, and the project bidding is imminent.

At the corner of the third floor of Dingli Hotel, through the translucent glass door, a quiet space is presented in front of you without external interference.

A quiet and bright four-and-a-half tea banquet, two paper windows, a row of shadow lights, and soft light make the whole room look too clean, as if just staying there can even wash the heart. Lowering his gaze, the tea kettle was placed on the stove. The lid was half-covered, but there was no sound of water. The body of the kettle is round and full, people can't help but want to stroke and grind with their hands, the water in the tea kettle is boiling, and the boiling sound injects new life and vitality into the soft and soft heart.

In such an environment, even if people do not deliberately look for it, Zen will arise spontaneously from the quiet tea vessel, and all the impetuosity in the heart will slowly precipitate, and there will be a beautiful artistic conception.

In the tea room, there are very good mahogany and tables and chairs imitating the Ming and Qing dynasties, the walls are surrounded by plain and elegant writing art banners, the image of the ink painting landscape is far-reaching, rendering the antique atmosphere, and the mahogany small table is placed with Yixing's purple sand tea set, and the fine porcelain cover bowl makes the atmosphere appear gentle and delicate.

For the tea ceremony, Feng Jiuyang is not very familiar, he only knows that in the formal tea party, the host should wear solemn and elegant clothes, and the guests should also dress appropriately, in order to avoid scratching the tea set, it is best not to wear metal jewelry when participating in the tea party, and the tea ceremony utensils (tea kettle, tea whisk, tea bowl, jug, tea box, bamboo spoon, cover, etc.) must be placed in the specified position, and the others are not well understood.

Fortunately, Diao Yipin is here tonight, he just needs to look at Diao Yipin's eyes and act, but he doesn't have to be too nervous, not to mention, Xia Banghao is not the kind of person who is very calculating, otherwise, Diao Yipin would not arrange for him to meet him.

About twenty minutes later, Xia Banghao's voice came from the corridor, Xia Banghao said, "I haven't had time to taste tea for a long time, and tonight is really thanks to your kindness." ”

Diao Yipin's voice said, "Deputy Secretary Xia, I also have the habit of drinking tea after every party, I am looking for an opportunity to taste tea with a master who is proficient in the tea ceremony, and I also learn more things by the way, saving some occasions, and I can't get the little goods in my stomach." ”

Diao Yipin's sycophants are boiling salt in the water, which makes people feel no sense at all, but a character like Xia Banghao naturally understands everything in his heart.

Xia Banghao said in a joking tone, "Vice Mayor Diao, today is not just to invite me to tea. ”

Diao Yipin said, "Tea tasting is the main thing, and talking things is supplemented." ”

When Xia Banghao heard this, he laughed and said, "You, the deputy mayor of Diao, are not outsiders, if there is really something, just say it, why bother." ”

Diao Yipin hurriedly said, "Deputy Secretary Xia thinks about it a lot, the tea room here is not ordinarily good, when it will go up, you are an expert and you will understand at a glance, as for talking about things, they are all trivial things that are not worth mentioning, and it is the same when you talk about it, and I will invite you to taste tea when I have the opportunity tonight." ”

Xia Banghao stepped into the door of the tea room, first attracted by the elegant decoration style inside, he turned around, and said to Diao Yipin, "It looks really good, I don't know if it's an embroidered pillow, it's useless." ”

Diao Yipin smiled and didn't say anything, Feng Jiuyang, who had been sitting inside and waiting, stood up and walked towards the door, Feng Jiuyang smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Xia Banghao, and said, "Deputy Secretary Xia, hello!" ”

Xia Banghao and Feng Jiuyang have met several times before, and the overall feeling is that this young man is indeed smart and intelligent, with strong work ability, and he is also outstanding among his peers.

Xia Banghao wanted to ask Diao Yipin, "Why is Feng Jiuyang also here?" As soon as he looked down and saw the tea set on the table, he didn't mention anything, and his voice became softer.

While sitting down, he introduced to Diao Yipin and Feng Jiuyang, "You young people, like to go to a bar or something, you don't know much about the tea ceremony, in fact, this tea ceremony is still very particular, you just say that this matcha belongs to green tea powder, and the water temperature should not be too high when ordering tea, 85 °C is appropriate." ”

Feng Jiuyang pretended to listen and nodded, the waiter in the tea room had already half-knelt in front of the three of them to start the first step of pouring tea, she first put the lid of the tea kettle on the lid, took a small amount of water from it with a bamboo spoon and poured it into the tea bowl, and cleaned the tea set in front of the guests.

Then pick up the boiling water on the stove, pour it into the purple clay pot on the table, and pour it into the fair cup, tea cup and fragrance cup one by one.

Xia Banghao explained next to him, "This is done to increase the temperature of the tea set, so that the tea can better play the characteristics of color, aroma, taste and shape in it."

Feng Jiuyang hurriedly patted the sycophants on the side, "Deputy Secretary Xia is really an expert, like me, you can only watch the excitement." ”

The waiter puts the tea leaves into the purple clay pot.

Xia Banghao couldn't help but introduce, "This procedure is called oolong into the palace, which actually means putting the tea into the pot, and the 'palace' is to describe the importance of the purple clay pot." ”

The waiter uses the lid to scrape off the foam and tea leaves on the surface of the teapot, making the tea soup in the pot clearer and cleaner. Diao Yipin interjected, "This dish is called 'spring breeze', I don't know if I'm right?" ”

Xia Banghao nodded approvingly and said, "It seems that Mayor Diao understands a lot?" ”

The waiter brewed the tea, and Feng Jiuyang was just about to reach out and bring a cup to Xia Banghao to show his respect, but unexpectedly, the waiter waved his hand lightly and poured out all the freshly brewed tea.

Feng Jiuyang was a little dumbfounded, Xia Banghao explained with a smile, "Tea tasting pays attention to the principle of 'head brewing water, two brewing tea, three brewing and four brewing are the essence', the tea brewed out of the head brewing is generally not drunk, poured into the sea of tea, and then, warm the pot and warm the cup again, this step is called rewashing the fairy face." ”

Feng Jiuyang was a little embarrassed and retracted the two hands that were stretched out, waiting to see the waiter's following procedures.

I saw that the waiter repeated the above procedure, and after adding the lid of the kettle after brewing for the second time, he also washed the surface of the kettle with boiling water.

Diao Yipin said, "This is to add internal and external heating, which is conducive to the emanation of tea fragrance." ”

Xia Banghao nodded, but Feng Jiuyang wondered in his heart, "Diao Yipin has always been bad at tasting tea, how can he understand so much today?" ”

The waiter will pour the tea soup in the fair cup quickly and evenly into the smelling cup in turn, and when there is not much tea left in the fair cup, the tea will be poured rhythmically with one high and one low.

When everything is ready, serve tea to the guests from right to left.

Feng Jiuyang wanted to ask, "What did you say about this set just now?" "Think about it, Xia Banghao is here tonight, it's better for me to talk less, and if you don't talk too much, you will lose.

Xia Banghao seemed to know the doubts in Feng Jiuyang's heart, and explained, "Just now, the waiter will quickly and evenly pour the tea soup in the fair cup into the fragrant cup in turn, calling it 'auspicious dragon and rain' has its auspicious meaning of 'nectar and rain', and there is also a saying that the technique of pouring tea rhythmically one high and one low, this method is called 'phoenix nodding'." ”

Feng Jiuyang couldn't help but say with emotion, "This knowledge of drinking a cup of tea is really too great, and my layman is an eye-opener tonight, and this is all thanks to Deputy Secretary Xia." ”

Feng Jiuyang's first half of the sentence was true, and the second half of the sentence was suspicious of patting the horse.

After all, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee in front of him is under Pu'an and above 10,000 people, how many people want to have the opportunity to sit with him? Even if it's a glass of wine and a word, as long as you can show your face in front of the leader and leave an impression on the leader, this is already a rare thing. There are thousands of administrative organs in the city, how can everyone have the opportunity to sit next to him and drink tea?

Now that the tea has been drunk, and the time is not early, Feng Jiuyang is a little anxious, how long will Diao Yipin drag out the topic before he gets to the point.

Xia Banghao took a sip of tea slowly, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, today is really worth the trip, under the recommendation of Vice Mayor Diao, I know that there is such a good tea room in our Pu'an City." ”
